Key Features
Key Features
- Minimally invasive: The Fibula Rod and interlocking screws are inserted via small incisions — dramatically reducing surgical complications, risk of infection, OR and healing time.
- Talar stability: Distal and lateral buttress screws prevent longitudinal or rotational displacement.
- Anatomic contour: The rod is precontoured to fit the canal.
- Modular tray: The Fibula Rod System — complete with rod, screws and instrumentation — is contained in a convenient, well-organized tray.
- Six size options: 110mm, 145mm and 180mm lengths with 3.0mm and 3.6mm diameter available.
